What is Salesforce Security Center?

Security Center is a native add-on product for Salesforce, designed to streamline security management and simplify data governance across a customer's entire Salesforce rollout by making sure they have a solid understanding of their security posture. It gathers detailed metrics on configurations, authentication, user permissions and activity, compiled in intuitive dashboards within Salesforce to help customers drive insights for improvement where necessary. Security Center enables proactive alerts for security posture changes and supports the creation of security policies for consistent deployment across connected Salesforce orgs.

What can you do with Security Center?

Security Center gives you complete visibility into your Salesforce environment across all your business units. Organize all your permissions and controls into one dashboard to centrally view, monitor, and manage your security health. Security Center’s single view makes it easy to keep your compliance and security posture in good health by helping you enable awareness, drive insights, and empower actions.

Enable Awareness.

User Permissions.

Consolidate user permissions to uncover which users have critical system permissions, like View All Data or Modify All Data. Quickly identify over-permissioned users and revoke access to eliminate any gaps in your org’s security posture. Easily track any changes to your key system permissions.

User Activity and Authentication.

Reduce security risks by drilling down further for granular details to uncover deeper insights or prove compliance with regulatory standards. Analyze User Activity to uncover users who should have their access revoked, such as contractors or third parties. Double-click into Authentication to see how people are logging into your orgs and fix any security gaps.

Configurations.

Quickly pinpoint misconfigurations to uncover potential vulnerabilities, wherever they may be in Salesforce. Monitor your licensing usage, Security Health Check score, and which packages and connected apps are installed. Ensure your configurations never deviate from your business intent.

Drive Insights.

Set up custom alerts to quickly identify when changes to your key permissions and metrics occur. Create notifications on 60+ metrics to be proactively notified when your security posture changes. Enhance your security posture while reducing time spent on monitoring changes by staying ahead of any potential issues.

Empower Actions.

Set up essential security configurations once and effortlessly deploy them across your connected Salesforce orgs. Define policies related to session timeouts, trusted IP ranges, password configurations, and your health check baseline. Streamline and standardize key security settings for a seamless and robust security infrastructure.
